Hey everyone,
I’m a singer (probably obvious by my handle and if you have seen any of my videos) that started using ukuleles with (forced) middle school choir. I accidentally fell in love with the instrument and love being able to play and sing.
That said, the next steps have occurred and I keep advancing in skill—which should probably be expected when you hold a PhD in music.
While I will ALWAYS (emphasis intended) sing and play, I have picked up some other resources along the way. I have bought some of Al Wood’s fingerstyle arrangements, Aaron Keim’s Fingerstyle Ukulele book, and Mike Lynch’s Chord Melody Books 1-3.
All of these are good, and are highly recommend. I can play all of that, so this tells me that it is time to challenge myself further.
My question: what is the next level of literature that is the next challenge? I look at Corey’s arrangements on The Ukulele Site and that jumps from 4 to 10 in difficulty.
What arrangements are out there in the 6 and 8 level of categories? Or does ukulele literature just jump from 4 to 10 and require a quantum leap in ability?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
Note: there is no difficulty level scale (maybe there should be)...I’m just using “4” and “10” in a relative sense.
